Pest Control For Indoor Plants
here are many ways to keep pests out of your indoor plants. The first thing to do is make sure that your plant is clean and healthy. If either of these things are not true, then the problem may be with your plant and not with pests.
If you have decided that pests are causing your problems, there are several methods you can try to get rid of them. One way is by spraying with water or chemicals. These can be purchased at most stores that sell garden supplies or online. You can also use natural products such as garlic or peppermint oil to repel insects from your plants.
Another option is to trap the pests with sticky traps or glue pads like Tanglefoot or Bug-Baffler which will catch them before they get into your house and cause problems for people living there as well as for you and your pets!
Indoor plants are growing in popularity, and you’re probably wondering how to ensure that they stay healthy and beautiful. We’ve got you covered! Here are some tips for keeping your indoor plants pest-free.
1. Avoid overwatering. Overwatering can cause root rot, which will lead to death. Watering once a week is sufficient for most houseplants.
2. Use a commercial insecticidal soap or horticultural oil to kill aphids (tiny insects that suck sap from the leaves). You can also use an insecticidal soap spray made with malathion or pyrethrins.
3. If you have problems with fungus gnats, use an insecticidal soap spray made with malathion or pyrethrins.
